Saw a bit of snow this morning, amazing how fast the snow melted though.


Yes most of those showers in the north are snow.

Heavy wet snow, after hail/sleet on and off all morning. Poor effort from the forecasters.

Glad this didn't set up over you, it would have completely changed the going at Aintree !

Snow in April is wierd. Feels like T shirt weather one minute. Snow the next.


I've recorded 4 days in April with falling snow (Monday, Tuesday, Friday and Today) and 1 day with lying snow (early this morning)


That beats out most Winter months!

Unbelievably there was/is a covering at Headingley much lower down than here but a few miles further south where the heavier stuff was.


Stopped now here and sun coming out.

Had a couple of snow showers around dinner time. It actually came down quite heavy for a time, but it melted on contact.

Been sleeting for the last hour. Clearly the air is not quite cold enough without that frozen boundary layer like this morning.

How much snow did you get first thing this morning? I  was surprised to see the blob on the radar when I woke up .

This is what it’s like near me just down the road from West Didsbury. 


Didn’t expect anything like this today at all.
